The White Horse in East Hertfordshire

Great food, slow service but very nice atmosphere

Only had a casual drink, staff were very accommodating. Lovely interior.

Exceptional customer service today. Thank you. We will return.

Lovely place Great food Friendly.

Gorgeous cosy pub. Tiny, friendly, great beer and food.

They have some raspberries. Sorry.

The restaurant team at The White Horse were really warm and welcoming our party of 14(!) We'd pre-ordered our mains - a mix of roasts and grills - to give them a heads up and added some starters and desserts either side, and all of the food came through tasting great and in good time! Great portions, tasty food, thumbs up all around.

A charming character pub restaurant with a good basic menu of well cooked well presented meals by and a good range of beers, wines and spirits with hot beverages also available. Friendly and efficient staff. A well heated covered outside dining area compliments the cosy internal restaurant. Limited nearby parking. Advance booking advisable but not always necessary.

Great venue for Christmas party (great service), wonderful live band.

Came her for a work Xmas lunch. Food was great, especially the Jacobs ladder and the turkey. Cosy, clean and well staffed. Desperately needs public wifi though. Don't come here if you need a phone signal!🤳🏼

I can't comment on rooms as I didn't stay. But food and service top class

We enjoyed a family lunch here, very welcoming and food gorgeous, will be back!

Had a lovely smash burger which was complemented by a young man named Harry who was very attentive, fantastic service and food - would recommend

Located in Hertingfordbury friendly service good food

Beautiful location, very cosy rooms, Great Food, was attending a Wedding reception

Had Sunday lunch, as part of a large group. The food and service were fine.

Great food .Great service fantastic staff

Eat in the restaurant very nice

Wife and I enjoyed a very nice anniversary meal here. Food was excellent as was the service. Nice atmosphere and decor. Highly recommended.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Well presented. Fresh well cooked vegetables. Lovely staff. Great atmosphere. Great service.

Great food and lovely decor. Service was pleasant.

Lovely roast dinner!!! Excellent beef and lamb, cooked beautifully!!! The only thing i would say is order extra roast potatoes, as you only get 3x on the plate.

Steaks we're perfect. Stroganoff was dry and unbeatable. Took it home for our friend's dog. Nothing taken off our bill even though 2 meals uneatable

Lovely Sunday meal in a great location with nice and friendly staff

Dinner for 11 people- amazing service, all correct and all served at the same time. Lovely food, large portions … couldn’t fault anything Well done!

Excellent meal here Wednesday lunch time great food and service my guests were very impressed !

Went for a roast on August 27th with my family as we have just moved to the area and have heard good things. Had a fabulous time! Was greeted with open arms and got a nice bit of roast lamb. Had some lovely food but was super impressed with the staff. We were served by two lovely young brunette ladies who made us feel looked after and were super helpful as well as the lovely young man on the bar. Would definitely return due to the amazing service and food!

Good Sunday lunch and friendly, attentive staff.

Firstly, a big thank you to the kitchen for producing the meals in a timely manner. Everyone commented on the standard of the food and what an excellent choice we had, but I must mention the feedback on two items in particular, firstly the steaks were excellent and the other was for the Brownies – wow they were amazing!! The waiting staff were organised and attentive throughout the meal, and nothing was too much trouble. The private room was ideal for our party and having the doors open to the courtyard was perfect on a warm day and for the children to have a run around. Thank you all for making my father-in-law’s 90th Birthday meal one to remember for all the right reasons.

The shallot tart with goats cheese and chunky chips was superb. Dairy free but without any of the nice things removed. Well done to the Chef. We will definitely return soon. Wish more restaurants think further than just marking food unavailable to allergies etc. This ends up limited to a couple of dishes only.

Myself and my auntie decided to go for a birthday lunch as the pub is round the corner from where we live and we have never had lunch there before. To say i am disappointed with the service and food is an understatement. On walking in there were three staff members standing around who clearly saw us and didn't offer us a table so I had to ask to be seated (not a massive biggy). We sat down for five minutes and nobody gave us a menu so I just got one myself from the main desk (bear in mind there were only x4 other customers at this point). We ordered x2 chicken and bacon club sandwiches (£13 each) and this is what we got (see photo). The bread was untoasted which made it so soggy and wet from the contents - i am pretty sure a club sandwich should be toasted! And the whole thing just fell apart. On telling the waitress it was inedible, all i got was a very abrupt 'sorry and they will take it off the bill', they then walked off and left it in front of me. I am not one to moan if a restaurant is super busy and the service is a bit slack but it was empty. And how you can get a club sandwich wrong is just not on. In total we paid £22.55 for x1 club sandwich, a diet coke, a latte and x2 packets of crisps. Its really upsetting that this is local pub and they really don't seem to care about their customers. Safe to say i won't be going back.

I had a delicious lunch at The White Horse - I decided to order the Caesar salad, It was a really large portion and very nice! The pub has a nice country feel to it, there is an outside seating area and parking onsite. I will definitely go again and would highly recommend!

ordered the baked camebert to share and the crispy squid. Very tasty!! then we had 2 roast beef and 2 roast pork. service was quick (considering they were so busy) and food was delicious. we came here a couple of months ago for a roast and were not that impressed but glad we came back. Staff are so friendly and food is plentiful and delicious.

Great food and great unhurried service from friendly staff. Restaurant was busy but the service and quality of the food was excellent.

We visited this pub for the second time today and had a great Sunday lunch with excellent service. I didn't notice until getting home that we were charged less as one of our party had asked for a smaller portion of pudding - only made a small difference to the bill but a nice touch.

We went for a midweek lunch and were not disappointed. Fabulous food and the portions are huge. Gorgeous restaurant and incredible service, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We haven’t been here for a long time but were blown away by every aspect. Can’t wait to come back

Nice place, nice food staff pleasant and helpful. Everyone enjoy the day out and food. Kids enjoy as well

Oh dear - the lovely staff and good atmosphere but food not good. Crispy Squid should be renamed soft rubbery squid as not one crisp was to be found. Two pieces of the small plate were simply inedible and had to be discreetly “discarded” Great beef though and was asked medium rare or well done, asked for medium rare and got well done… not a problem as the beef was lovely quality. Yorkshire was great in size and taste but cold. Roast Parsnips and broccoli were rock hard - and roast potatoes cooked but sadly soft and lacked colour and crisp of a “roast potato” Cauliflower cheese came in a shallow dish with burnt cheese top and very little creamy cheese sauce. Gravy scarce on the plate and no boat for extra came. On the plus side the beef and potatoes in what gravy there was - were very tasty and the beef good quality which means with more focus and effort this dinner could have been great.

Fabulous party night. Great food. Amazing band. Wonderful service. Incredibly well organised. Works Christmas party

Visited this venue last night for my birthday. Two very young servers who were pleasant enough. The burger I had was very dense and as dry as a bone not a drop of "juicyness" about it, and the cheese could of been welded to it. Two others in our party also had the burger and theirs were also dense and dry. The chunky chips were nice. One granddaughter had the jerk burger which she said the sauce was extremely hot and her skinny chips were also covered in the sauce. Others had fish and chips which they said were fine.

We had a top class Sunday roast lunch at this lovely and beautifully decorated pub. Great produce well cooked and presented. Then at the weekend we celebrated our son's marriage at the White Horse. The food was excellent especially my aubergine parmesan starter, fish & chips, and so light cheesecake and raspberry sorbet. The evening was brilliantly organized by Kate and her team. We stayed the night in Room 3 which was imaginatively decorated in bold colours. Bed very comfortable and large. Excellent bathroom. And top class tea & coffee refreshments.

Wow, have just returned home from having the most delicious Sunday lunch. Went with a friend , both of us had a roast and by far the best roast dinner I've had locally. Fantastic service from the staff. All I can say is.... EXCELLENT

Although this is one of our locals in the area, we choose to come here on a regular basis and for special occasions. We have been coming here for years and never had a bad meal or bad service, in fact, we bring people here...

After a long delay caused by covid restrictions we were able to have our family celebrations 2 years on. The White Horse is a great gastropub reasonably priced quality food and on point service. Our booking was honoured from pre covid19 which we booked one...

Fantastic pub, gorgeous rooms, all facilities excellent quality,and delicious food, but most of all the fantastic staff who went above and beyond to accommodate us, especially the wonderful lady on front of house. Highly recommended, will be staying here every time we visit our daughter

Ticks all the boxes this one. Beaut little place. The way things should be. Food & beer were both fresh & high quality. Thank you.🙏

Very disappointed. 4 page menu, told pizzas were off, that was one page ! No fish n chips. Rest was very basic, chose rump which was good, so called chips poor. Staff pleasant.

Great service, clean restaurant / pub. Crispy chilli beef salad was amazing. Will definitely be back

As always great food, ambience and staff.

Lovely lunch with friends here today. Great setting & good food.

Lovely atmosphere, great food and attentive service

A lovely welcome and pastries were warmed up with complimentary cream.Excellent customer service !

Food OK but service very slow. Staff too busy chatting amongst themselves, not attentive. Not very welcoming. No hand gel in toilet , told a waitress, still not refilled when I left

Great place, very good food, good service, staff friendly and attentive, an all round great experience.

Nice roast dinner, good service

Absolutely stunning old English pub with a modern contemporary feel. Hidden away in beautiful hertingfordbury it oozes sophistication and the menu, food and staff are all top tier. All of the food was cooked and prepared beautifully with decent sized portions.The decor is stunning and and the dining area is extremely bright and colourful. Highly recommended for any occasion so we will most definitely be back 😍

Decor of the restaurant was very pretty and we were excited to have our meal. Ribs and chicken wings were nice. The Asian duck salad was poor, the duck was bone dry and seemed old. It was served on a bed of peppers, onions and...

Mother’s Day lunch. Set menu, pre order no problem. Chicken wings undercooked - visiting blue blood. Roast beef - chewy and sinewy, couldn’t eat. Yorkshire pudding made with too many eggs as very eggy flavour! No cauliflower cheese! Dessert. Waffle over microwaved and hard underneath....

Liked it good food..Nice atmosphere + parking ...All Good

Fantastic rooms at good prices and food is not too bad either , very pleasant and polite staff

Lovely birthday family meal food for 30 people was hot & well presented Staff couldn't do enough to please everyone! Definitely recommend

I hate to give this review as my previous visits were quite enjoyable. We had a table of 6 and during our meal we were not offered any drink top ups even though all our glasses were empty for a long time. As we all...

Lovely Sunday lunch, quite expensive. Busy but service good.

Love this place. Great Sunday lunch and relaxing family atmosphere. They do a great martini here too! Highly recommended.

Lovely place with friendly staff!

A wonderful venue for a post-wedding meal for 20 in the function room. Excellent food and very attentive (but not intrusive) staff.

Can't say I was really impressed with the Sunday roast. Although the beef was tender I didn't enjoy the roast potatoes as they weren't crispy

This is a lovely country pub/hotel. The bar is intimate. The restaurant is ambient with a good standard of food. They have now added pods in the garden which look like fun, hopefully we will try them soon.

Nice pub, food OK, very pretty pods but confused on hire fee? What does £60 hire fee cover? A freind of mine said hers was refunded... Ours wasn't.

We hired a dome for the night, it was great, very comfortable and even though we were outside we were not fogotten about. Great food also

I only popped in for a spot of lunch after a walk around Panshanger Park (which was very good). A very hospitable pub/restaurant, polite and quick service to the table. I will probably go back for a full meal experience, maybe including the outside bubbles.

Fantastic Sunday roast, helpful staff.

Nice venue with a polite young and professional staff. Highly recommended.

This is such a fab pub, great location, great ambiance therefore could be a little goldmine, however the food so bad! The menu is limited, the kitchen closes at 8pm during the week and the food served is very hit and miss. Come on guys,...

The food was amazing - the duck Bon bons to start were really tasty and the short rib for main was one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. The service was excellent. Thank you to our waitress Gemma and to the...

Stunning location,and friendly helpful staff who found me something gluten free. My prawn cocktail was fresh, crisp and delicious. Idyllic lunch in the sunshine in peaceful village surroundings with amiable clientele who seemed to be enjoying the experience as much as I was. Wonderful go-to...

A truly dog friendly pub! Lovely Sunday roast menu with great veggie options & well cooked meat! Dogs kept in bar area away from those in restaurant so you can have your choice of dogs Vs no dogs

Very good food and lovely staff

Came here for a Sunday roast and it did not disappoint, so nice to have a good vegetarian option (which was lovely!) and I am told the roast beef was also excellent (plus points for asking if pink or well done was preferred). Décor was...

Well what can I say usually I can say this place was OK, but The White Horse was 10 out of ten. Lovely rooms great food, meal of ribs was very good and the service was friendly and polite. But best of all it was not expensive. One of the places we shall visit again when we are back in the area. Any thanks.

Visited here as part of a group lunch. Was disappointed straight away as they had no pizzas available (a notable part of their menu), which several people had chosen prior to our visit. However the food we did have was really nice still, and staff were great. Would still visit again to try the pizza!

Great pub Staff were brillant would recommend to everyone

Disappointing family meal here on Sunday . Booked a table for ten people at 15:30 and was told on arrival that we must get our order in by 15:45 as kitchen closes . We were rushed to order our food and then told several items...

Really fabulous food - especially the roast beef and fisherman’s catch, however considering it wasn’t busy the service was super slow and a bit indifferent.

An amazing team, from start to finish, who assisted me in making this a super and special surprise 40th for my Wife. The Buffett food exceeded expectation as and the kitchen staff did themselves proud. The bar staff on the night were all so personable...

Good food, friendly staff in lovely surroundings.

Perfect place for a family meal either causally or for an occasion. For a table of 8, which can sometimes be a challenge for a venue on a busy Friday evening, honestly we couldn’t find a fault. Front of house service was very attentive and...

On this occasion, took a while to get initial drink order, then took a while to get food order. It's okay for pub with grub

Great pub/restaurant with a lovely atmosphere & great good. Definitely recommend!

Plenty of outdoor space, dog friendly, attentive staff, and delicious food!

Open friendly staff very clean establishment with a great selection on the menu. Food arrived quickly and was very tasty. Reasonable prices so all in all well worth a visit.

My friends hired the function room for my Hen Do, it looked beautiful and the food was great. Such lovely staff - they went above and beyond nothing was to much trouble. Can’t wait to visit again! Thank you x

Lovely location so that you can pop in for a well deserved drink after a long walk around Panshanger Park. Unfortunately we wont be eating here again, the Pizzas were frozen yet listed as authentic/ stonebaked. The food let this place down massively as it...

The best Thai food I’ve tasted in Hertford. Cooked by the lovely Annie. Authentic Thai beautiful food generous portions and great value for money in this beautiful listed building. Fantastic service we will be back soon

Great spot. We arrived after a long journey tired and hungry. No frills food at a reasonable price. Solid

Excellent service & food was brilliant. Would highly recommend for anyone to visit, will definitely be back

Came to this pub for lunch with friends and had a lovely meal! Staff were super friendly and attentive! Would highly recommend!

Came for a family lunch yesterday and it was absolutely delicious. Cannot fault this restaurant one bit. So much choice whether to sit in bar, outside or restaurant and very well managed. Brownies are fantastic they are to die for. Cant recommend this place enough.

First visited after it's remodel and reopening before COVID struck. Then the menu was interesting bordering on fine dining. The decor was lovely. Went there last night and opened the menu to find a page of pizza's, a page of burgers and half a page...

Had our wedding dinner here ...we had a lovely time . The girls were brilliant ....Gemma was very professional and friendly. The Wallace room looked great and accommodated our 23 guests comfortably. Food was very nice and well presented. The hotel rooms were quirky and decorated to a high standard ....beds were amazing . Would highly recommend. Will be back as a regular diner and guest .
